Avoid clicking on ‘crashsafari.com’

Be wary of clicking or tapping on links that are making the rounds on social media. Pranksters are sharing the link to the website crashsafari.com, often using shortened URLs to hide the address. If you click, it takes you to a malicious website that crashes iPhones, iPads and Mac safari browsers.

The site contains software created in Javascript code which generates an infinite string of characters that overwhelms the device’s memory.

The bug crashes Safari, Chrome for Windows, Mac and iOS, and forces a reboot of iPhones and iPads. The bug also heats up and restarts Android devices.

How to prevent it from crashing your browser:

For Mac Users –

Open Safari Browser

Go to Preferences

Go to Search

Un-select the ‘Include Search Engine Selections’ button

Restart Browser

Another alternative is to use the incognito mode which can be accessed by clicking on file, and then clicking on New Private Window

For iOS users –

Go to settings

Find and open Safari there

Turn off Safari Suggestions

For the iOS users, the alternative is to tap the right-most button on the bottom strip of Safari Browser to open the tab-switcher, and there select ‘Private’.

Brought my son's cracked iPhone in and had it repaired in less than 30 minutes and it cost less than what my co-workers and friends had paid or said it would cost. Bonus wa that if I had any problems bring it back and he would look at it for free.

Charles and Fidel expertly fixed my Asus tablet with not only a quick turn around, but at very reasonable price as well. Screen Remedy was also the only choice when my wife and my own laptops got viruses. They took care of the viruses and put several things in place to deter the issue from occurring again. Its nice to know I have a place I can take my devices whenever I have any issues, having them right up the street is also a major plus!

They were great! The screen repair only took 45 minutes because I went right when they opened. Also the price is comparable to other places who fix screen but the good thing about Screen Remedy is that 50% of all proceeds go to charity. I definitely recommend it!

When it comes to gadgets and gizmos, we love all things tech. one thing that you should not do is confuse our passion for snobbery. We fix all electronic devices such as phones, tablets, PCs, and Mac's.
